Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
- 1 head Green cabbage
- 4 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 2 teaspoons Sesame oil
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, minced
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Rinse and pat dry the pork chops. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil to make a sauce. Set aside.
Step 3
Cut the cabbage into thin strips, discarding the core, and set aside.
Step 4
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the pork chops and set them aside on a plate, covering them loosely with foil to keep warm.
Step 5
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 6
Add the cabbage to the skillet and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until tender but still crunchy. Pour in the prepared sauce and toss to coat the cabbage evenly.
Step 7
Return the pork chops to the skillet, placing them on top of the cabbage. Spoon some sauce over the chops and let everything cook together for 2-3 minutes to combine the flavors.
Step 8
Remove from heat and sprinkle the dish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if using.
Step 9
Serve the pork chops on a bed of the flavorful cabbage mixture. Pair with steamed rice or noodles if desired.
